por que?

why are men so attracted to insecure women? i was talking with these guys in my building (harvard grads - but that just makes them well-educated assholes) and to the prompt of "what's your type" one replied, "recovering anorexics." i thought he was kidding, but then he explained himself: "i'm attracted to insecure women who need someone stronger in their lives." not to mention the fact that they're already skinny and they'd probably be rather cheap dates. then i realize how desperate and needy some women are and these are the women who constantly have men around them. i'm not saying that co-dependency is a fatal flaw. and obviously it works in their favor because they never have to suffer the wrath of being single (if you're the type that measure's life based on consistent relationships). however, i have to assert that society perpetuates the neediness of women. it's a cyclical situation of women thinking that being single equals unhappiness, therefore seeming more desperate towards men, then the men take to this otherwise attractive quality (because, let's face it, in any direction, desperation means an easy lay) and run with it into a relationship. this leaves every self-sufficient female completely lacking. why does this happen? it's like survival of the fittest has somehow devolved into playing the game that men have created in order to maintain control. don't get me wrong, i'm far from the feminazi role, i'm just curious as to why?
